“I am shaking right now … can’t believe this. Thank you Free State. Thank you Mzansi,” says Kaybee, after being crowned winner during the show’s live finale which aired on Friday, 16 October. The judges, DJ Spectacular, DJ Naves, and season one winner DJ Mshega, decided to waive their voting rights on the night, thus allowing the public vote to determine the winner.
Kaybee walks away with more than R10-million in music production, studio recording hardware and software, the opportunity to compile his own album for local and international release, and he takes home a legion of other prizes.
The second season’s runner-ups are Zola Emo Boys and DP Man.
